Christmas in South Dakota

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. The boys had lots of fun playing in the snow. It took us about 20 minutes each time to try to get bundled and out the door but once we were out, there was no stopping them. Nate loved being pulled in the sled and Collin and Bob built a snow fort. We had lots of great food and plenty of laughs. Santa was very good to the boys. Collin even got the trombone he was asking for.


All the Quickstad guys.


Grandma Jan made the boys aprons.
This is the snow pile that Collin helped make driving the John Deer tractor with Boppa. This later became a snow fort with a cave, steps and a slide.
Here is our really sad looking snowman. They did get out later and get him a carrot nose. Collin insisted.
Collin was so excited to make a snow angel.

Nate helped us pack.

Hey Happy New Year!!!!
Looks like you had a great time.
I knew the kids would enjoy the snow. A trombone eh?
Tell Collin I am expecting a concert.
Love to you all.
